Pick it up then offload at the side of the road somewhere I hate Greedy assholes

Booking Information Item Description 2x Additional Comments 2 pallets, 2 collections, 2 deliveries (St Helens & Rossendale) Delivering to E9 & Dagenham (9 miles apart) This week, Pays £85.00 Suggested Vehicle SWB Transit

In the job description it says deliver This week, i suspect the listing automatically says asap

Either way 85 quid? 4 different places plus the joy that is London? Noooooooooo, someone else can have that given my van doesnt run on fresh air.

That's just to look much money for me, have to offer discount to get it!

WHAT CAN ONE SAY ABOUT THE JOB THAT COULD BE REPEATED ON HERE?

Full load for a suggested SWB, half a load (subject to weight) for a XLWB which could then co-load with something else.

Unfortunately every single load is a backload for someone at some stage, if the price is wrong for you then just move on. If the job doesn't get taken, the vendor has 2 choices, pay a better rate or not get the job covered.

Each pallet contains 60 boxes to be hand balled to top floor of 8 story building and there's no lift!

I agree, Discussing and moaning about this all week does absolutely nothing.

If it does not suit... DON'T DO IT!

It might keep someone fit but it won't be me I only co load for same customer

Take the job for £85. Then travel the distance to cover this cost say 30% of the journey. Ring the vendor for them to take the goods the rest of the way.

32.6pplm is a joke, but thats just what people are looking for these days. None of us off here would do it. We all know there are 'drivers' out there with a rusty old sprinter that will co load half a dozen jobs like this 7 days a week.

We could not agree more but we are all guilty for this, as at some point we have done a job for peanuts or co loaded jobs for peanuts to make a good job out of a bad one and so here we are moaning for something we all started as some point

I can swear on my sons life that I have never done this. Please DO NOT label me and my good name with these idiots.

Forget about this crap topic, move on, go and wash your van or pay some invoices life is to short, or go and do your christmas shopping.

The other says: No I cant even remember the ones I shagged.
